Overview
About Me
I’m a human being from Scotland. Right now, I’m running an experiment in location-independent/nomadic life. I’m working a fully remote tech writing job just now, though I am considering handing in my notice and taking a full on “vagabonding” career break.
I love to stay active: I swim, walk, and practice yoga as often as I can, used to do a lot of cycling, climbing, and various other things. I’m up for trying pretty much any new activity at least once. Also, if the first paragraph wasn’t a giveaway, I love to travel.
I’m looking forward to connecting with some like-minded folk on the road 😁

Music, Movies, and Books

Teach, Learn, Share
I’m deeply curious about life. I live to immerse myself in conversation and learning. I’m a qualified EFL teacher, and qualified to PhD level in maths and physics, so am always happy to share what I know :) I’m planning to train as a yoga teacher, but don’t know exactly when yet…
What I Can Share with Hosts
I’m a half-decent cook and love a deep conversation about topics that interest me
